GM Report: Marco got the phone number for GSCS regarding the service contract for the Stellar, but has not called. He should have more information for the General Meeting next week.

Donations:  Brad Krebs from the EECS department has n number of SCSI
drives to donate.  We won't be able to use them with the Apollos 
because we aren't running and don't have DomainOS 10.4.1.  We will
be able however to hopefully use them with the Suns.

The budget had to be redone and handed in to Matt Dundon.

Tom and Kenji are going to help Marco look into printers for the OCF
to buy.

The office in Eshleman now has a desk and a file cabinet to go with 
the chair and the coat rack.

Bug Keir: Marco suggested to Keir that it would be a good idea to post the minutes from the 1st General Meeting. Keir agreed and said he would as soon as he found them again.

SM Report: Tsunami is still hozed!! It's having trouble with bad blocks in the vtoc. Alan is working on it.

Re-reg software will be along soon.

ASUC Stuff: Jenni said that the ASUC Senate would not be passing a budget on the 5th and that most likely the budget would be executive ordered once again.

New Hardware Stuff: There's a guy selling a 760Mb disk for $250 that would be great to buy to replace tsunami. Nevin made a motion to buy it. The motion carried 12-0-0.

General Meeting Agenda: It was decided that we would talk about the following at the General Meeting: Printer Hardware Re-reg What is the OCF? The Future of the OCF Open Forum - Discuss Goals

Bug Keir: Once again Marco made the suggestion to Keir to post the minutes.

Food Stuff: A suggestion was made by Marco that board members might want to supply food at meetings for the members. It was thought to be a good idea and the board is unofficially doing this.

As far as the secretary can remember the meeting ended at approximately 8:00pm, but was never officially closed.

Respectfully Submitted,

Jennifer Snider
